Folks, The final NSFnet configuration took place on Friday, 4/28. Starting this week and continuing over the course of the next few weeks, ANS will be migrating AS690 policy away from NSFnet policy and toward something new and improved. There may be some providers at interchange points who are still using AS 690 peer routers as route servers (e.g., to learn another provider's routes from us with no extra peering sessions needed). We expect to eliminate third party routing at interchange points early this month; this change will not affect connectivity with ANS, but may affect connectivity between other ASes. Those providers still in need of a route server should contact the Routing Arbiter (DB-admin@ra.net) to set up peering arrangements. As an import policy aid for peer providers at these interchange points, I have registered an AS macro object in the RADB. This macro is recursively defined (from the root identifier of "AS-ANS") and lists the ASes for which ANS provides transit. It's defined in such a way as to make "cold potato" routing easy to set up for those peers to whom we speak at multiple U.S. interchange points; those providers interested in doing mutual cold potato routing can send me a note. ANS would like to use corresponding AS macros registered by other providers to ease such a configuration. Content of this recursively defined macro can be examined using whois: whois -h whois.ra.net AS-ANS ANS will update this macro in the RADB as needed. It is expected to show up in the RADB shortly, though I've included it below.
